HTML::FormHandler::Field::Password3pm

Version

version 0.40068

Overview

The password field has a default minimum length of 6, which can be easily changed:

  has_field 'password' => ( type => 'Password', minlength => 7 );

It does not come with additional default checks, since password requirements vary so widely. There are a few constraints in the HTML::FormHandler::Types modules which could be used with this field: NoSpaces, WordChars, NotAllDigits. These constraints can be used in the field definitions 'apply':

   use HTML::FormHandler::Types ('NoSpaces', 'WordChars', 'NotAllDigits' );
   ...
   has_field 'password' => ( type => 'Password',
          apply => [ NoSpaces, WordChars, NotAllDigits ],
   );

You can add your own constraints in addition, of course.

If a password field is not required, then the field will be marked 'noupdate', to prevent a null from being saved into the database.
